Bug Description

I installed the new (and appreciated) package kubuntu-restricted-extras but when I started Amarok it said it has no mp3 support. I belive that this needs to be included in the metapackage.

I just discovered that it dosen't contain support for mp3 in K3B too, this should be added too.

This does - it's now a part of ubuntu-restricted-extras source package.

Unfortunately, this is an empty package at the moment - apt isnt installing recommends by default, for universe/metapackages, only packages in main. This will be fixed before tribe 3. (either, it gets hardcoded back to dependancies, or apt gets fixed, to cope with metapackages in universe or multiverse)
